Nursing
There are four resident nursing units to meet the functional needs of residents. Assistance with daily living functions, medication administration, and medical treatments are provided 24 hours a day by qualified nursing assistants, licensed practical nurses and registered nurses. Each resident’s care is directed by an RN Nurse Manager.
Intermediate Care (ICF) provides basic living services as well as providing medical care.
Skilled Nursing Level (SNF) provides services for those residents requiring advanced technological services such as intravenous therapy; complex services such as wound care; or patient teaching to return home. SNF is a Medicare certified program, paying 100% for the first 20 days and a portion of the bill for the succeeding 80 days per benefit period.
Respite Care services provide respite for care givers from 24 hours, up to 14 days. Residents under this service receive the same level of care as other residents living at Maplewood. Respite care at Maplewood is certified to receive Medicaid.
Therapeutic Living Center (TLC) provides a flexible therapeutic environment for people whose behavior may affect their well being or the well being of others. Individualized care plans are developed to meet behavior and physical needs.
Adult Day Care Services can also be provided onsite at Maplewood, although space is limited. Adult day care clients are fully integrated with Maplewood’s resident activities schedule, and all needed meals are provided. This service is available from one to seven days a week, from 6 to 12 hours per day. At this time, adult day care at Maplewood is available for private pay clients.
